Haulotte expands Pulseo range with two electric scissor lifts

Haulotte has unveiled two new electric models, the HS15 E and HS18 E all-terrain scissor lifts (HS4390 E and HS5390 E in North America), which are part of the company's Pulseo generation range. They are able to lift up to 750 kg of load and up to four people.

The HS15 E and HS18 E have a working height of up to 15 m and 18 m respectively. Their large work platform reaches 7.40 m long when both extensions are deployed. The scissor lifts are suitable for a wide range of applications and can be used in all types of terrain, even the most rugged. They can overcome various obstacles and climb slopes up to 45%.

The oscillating axle matches the position of the front wheels to the uneven terrain to maintain optimal ground traction. The four-wheel drive axles deliver maximum torque and ensure excellent power distribution. In low grip situations, the manual differential wheel lock provides extra traction, getting the machine in and out of challenging terrain.

Haulotte's new Pulseo generation range can be deployed on slopes up to 5° with outriggers to guarantee safe elevation on uneven ground. High ground clearance protects machine components in all terrain conditions. The proportional commands ensure precise movements and smooth operation on the way up to the work area, while ergonomic controls guarantee comfortable driving.

The new Pulseo scissor lifts also incorporate the Haulotte Activ'Lighting System. Ten LED spotlights provide ideal illumination of the basket, controls, and the manoeuvring area around the machine for safe loading/unloading operations in low visibility conditions. 

New on scissors, the Haulotte Activ'Shield Bar system protects the driver from entrapment situations. The machine stops automatically as the operator is pushed towards the bar.

Emission-free machines

Featuring a 100% electric design, the HS15 E and HS18 E scissor lifts operate with no harmful emissions. They offer a clean alternative suited to any situation, such as Low Emission Zones (LEZ) or green construction sites. Available with non-marking tyres, the units can also be used indoors on sensitive surfaces without leaving a trace.

The latest Pulseo machines operate in silence (acoustic profile <60 dB in electric mode), so they are ideal for low-noise areas or public places. These new scissor lifts are also designed to maximise battery life and optimise power consumption. Their 48-V battery pack delivers enough power for a full day of work, and three charging solutions adapt to the on-site infrastructure. 

The primary charger recharges the batteries at the end of the shift from any standard 110 - 230 V single phase electrical network. An optional three-phase accelerated charger ensures an 80% charge in only three hours. The scissor lifts can also be equipped with a removable and interchangeable range extender to rapidly recharge the batteries while the machine remains fully operational. One range extender can be used on different HS15 E or HS18 E.

The new Pulseo models integrate the Haulotte Activ'Energy Management System. It features a tailored charging curve, built-in maintenance care programmes and preventive maintenance notifications to significantly optimise the performance and lifespan of the battery. Moreover, the HS15 E and HS18 E embed centralised watering solutions to simplify the daily work of technicians and reduce maintenance effort.

With maintenance-free, asynchronous motors, direct access to components, and high-quality routing, the new Pulseo scissor lifts ensure minimum downtime. Battery maintenance costs are significantly reduced thanks to the Haulotte Activ'Energy Management. The onboard diagnostic tool, Haulotte Activ'Screen, makes daily life easy for users and technicians and give them valuable information to guarantee the machines are always available and ready to work. These functions are available on mobile devices as well, via the Haulotte Diag app.
